What is the Stretch Curve function being replaced with?

Solution

From development:


A replacement for stretch would be using sketcher. Move curve behaves like stretch. The selection is also the same (multi-select the red area). This works for 2D cases only. For 3D we have no solution.





As such, per IR 9496807:

... just informed that the retirement of Stretch Curve has been delayed indefinitely.  You will continue to have access for the foreseeable future.




However,  if the function cannot be found in versions later than NX 12:


You can reinstate Stretch Curve in 1872 (and 1872 series) using 

NX_SHOW_EDIT_CURVE_STRETCH = 1

It won't appear on the ribbon, but you can customize it onto the ribbon.  It will appear in the menu.
